Notes
1. For example, in the statement ‘In Tendril (Figure 5.2) Kawaguchi used a series of growth patterns including fractal dimensions to produce a vivid organic form’ (page 236), the intent of conveying the fact that Kawaguchi used a rule system to generate forms and the results were fractal-like is admirable but, as written, it makes little sense.
2. Several of those SIGGRAPH exhibitions are viewable online at http://www.siggraph.org/connect/digital-arts/art-show-archives.
3. Noll's paper containing both images is available online at http://noll.uscannenberg.org/ArtPapers/Mondrian.pdf.
4. Taylor refers to this as the schism between the ‘purists’ and the ‘users’.
5. The examples are mine. Interestingly, Taylor's own view is that he hopes it lies undiscovered in some computer artist's attic.
